About this listen

 AS SEEN ON ITV'S DOCUMENTARY KATE GARRAWAY: DEREK'S STORY

*** The Sunday Times Bestseller ***
'Intimate, tender and brutally honest ... a remarkable book.' Decca Aitkenhead, The Sunday Times

'These are probably the toughest times we have faced in many decades, and we all have to find within us the strength and resilience to get through and to find happiness and love in our futures, whatever life throws at us.'

Kate Garraway has had to learn how to adapt ever since her husband Derek began his fight against the devastating impact of Covid, a condition that has left him needing 24-hour care at home and long spells in hospital, before he sadly passed away in January, surrounded by his loving family.

In The Strength of Love, Kate explores issues that resonate with so many of us. She looks at the impact of trauma as well as the importance of resilience, adaptability, curiosity and positivity when recovering from it. She talks about identity, purpose, how to embrace uncertainty and take back control of our lives. Through her and Derek's story, she provides comfort and wisdom that will help anyone who has ever felt desperate, lonely or experienced profound loss, or who is fearful about what the future holds.

Despite all that she and her family have had to endure, Kate shows us that love truly is the most powerful and resilient emotion of all.©2023 Kate Garraway (P)2023 Bonnier Books UK Entertainment & Celebrities Personal Development Personal Success Celebrity Resilience Heartfelt Inspiring Marriage

I finished this book the week before Derek died Kate had such hope which is all you’d ever wish a loved one to have for you if you were in her position. Kate told her story so well she is an inspiration and her strength is amazing and tells her story so openly

This book opens your eyes to what people go through when someone falls seriously ill in the family. Kate held everything together at the expense of her own health until she realised nothing would ever be the same for any of them. Always telling herself how lucky they were as lots of people had lost their loved ones. What a kind strong and lovely person Kate is, really enjoyed this book.
